VIDEO - Justin Bieber Blows Out Power at Apollo Theater – Finishes Show With Help From Fans – EPIC!

Justin Bieber pulled off an epic moment Monday night at the Apollo Theater in Harlem – and it was an accident.

Bieber was preparing to perform his last song of the last show on his “All around The World” tour when the power at the Apollo Theater went out leaving the house dark.

Emergency power was restored to illuminate some of the lights but there was no power to the stage, microphones, guitars, spotlights, speakers, or effects.

In fact, the NBC crew that was there recording the event for their special two part special on Bieber were without power to their cameras except for one battery powered hand held portable!

The Bieb’s last song was supposed to be “Boyfriend” off his just released new album “Believe”, but it looked like the show would have to be end without his final iconic anthem.

Bieber’s dance crew put on an impromptu dance off to help kill some time, and Justin himself took to the drum kit for a spontaneous drum solo, but time simply ran out.

But you don’t get to be the most famous 18-year-old pop star in the world by throwing in the towel without hearing that little voice in your head saying “The show must go on…”

So after explaining to his fans in the audience what was happening with the power outage, Bieber told them, “You can’t hear me but I can still hear you!” and proceeded to start “Boyfriend” with nothing more than a solo drum beat.

What happened next may very well go down in Apollo history because every single fan in the audience started singing “Boyfriend” – in the right key, in perfect harmony, knowing every word, and filling the theater with the most incredible sound it had ever hosted.

Bieber and his dance crew proceeded to perform every single move of the song as the crowd did the singing and Bieber and company did the dancing.

It was an epic moment.

You have to admit that’s one of the most dedicated fan communities you’re ever going to find.

After the show Bieber took to twitter to thank his fans for their patience.

By Tuesday, “Believe” had been released worldwide and within minutes was number one on Billboard and iTunes pop music charts in 33 different countries.

“Home Alone” movie star Macaulay Culkin was spotted by ET in New York recently looking like he just crawled out of a local meth lab.

Culkin, 31, was photographed while holding a Red Bull energy drink while he stopped to have his picture taken with a fan.

Culkin became famous for his role in “Uncle Buck” and for portraying young Kevin McCallister in the “Home Alone” movie franchise.

Macaulay also starred in the New York club scene flick “Party Monster” playing young gay club hopper Michael Alig.

Culkin also dated Mila Kunis for several years.

It is rumored that Culkin will star in the 2012 Martin J. Thomas military comedy “Service Man” – an uplifting military action comedy drama made in the style of the 1980's feel good movies.

Culkin has been busted for possession of pot before and has admitted to being a hermit and not leaving his New York apartment for weeks at a time.

Let’s hope this is just a momentary blip of slothism…

Video - Budweiser Spot Pays Tribute to 9/11 Victims and New York

On this ten year anniversary of the tragic events of 9/11 we pray for the families affected by the events of that day.

There is so much that could be said today, so much that needs to be said – but after ten years we seem to be at a loss for words.

After 48 hours of non-stop television coverage we have seen all we need to see – all we want to see.

Ten years ago, the Budweiser Company ran a 60 second spot on TV immediately following the events of 9/11 that paid tribute to New York City, the victims, and the heroes that served that day.

It may have been the single most class act that has ever graced the television screen.

There were no words spoken. There were no tears.

There was no blame. There was no hate.

There was simply love.

As the Budweiser horses make their way to the big city to offer a simple salute – a bow, to show humanity that we will never forget.



The spot only ran for one day because Budweiser didn’t want to make any indirect profit from it.

It is a touching reminder of where we have been.

God speed World.

Christiana – A New York Singer You Should Get to Know – Video

Every now and then we run across a new artist or singer that really impresses us.

We found Christiana from her Facebook page and YouTube channel and are wondering why more people have not picked up on her distinctive style and unique talent.

She hails from New York and has spent a lifetime singing, dancing, and learning how to act - and has an impressive number of professionally done studio videos of her music.

Christiana is the Granddaughter of a famous Opera singer and you can tell by her fashion and musical dexterity that the glamor and style has transcended down through the generations.

The thing we liked most was her throwback to the classic vintage style of music. You know - music that you can actually listen to, enjoy, and understand the words.

Christiana names Judy Garland, Celine Dion, and Queen as her big musical influences – and we definitely see that as young and beautiful as she is, she sports an old soul when it comes to her music.

She almost comes across as a Marilyn Monroe meets Madonna old-fashioned style, but a few of her photos and music videos actually have a slight Lady Gaga look and feel – and we mean that in a good way.

Christiana is very elegant and sophisticated, and clearly does not need a meat dress, plastic egg, shoulder horns, or bizarre costume to express her mood.

She seems very comfortable in her own skin, and this is most evident in her video “Being Alive”.

With a sound somewhere between classical Madonna and Celine, it is a great example of her musical range and emotion she puts into her music.

In another song titled “Werewolf”, Christiana shows how effortlessly she can belt out the power notes.

In every song we listened to we could always hear a blend of styles – sometimes pop, sometimes romantic, sometimes musical Broadway, other times more vintage old school.

It is refreshing to find an artist who seems to be all about the music and not the fame, costumes, paparazzi, TV appearances, World tours, tabloid stories, and meat dresses.



Christiana seems like one of those artists that could really outshine her competition if given the right opportunity, producer, studio exposure, and set list.

Perhaps the world is not quite ready to return to the days when music was music and Hollywood was Hollywood.

But someday, we will all wake up and realize that Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Kanye, and others were just an output function of a massive marketing scheme designed more to make money than actually entertain us.

Christiana is a classic musical entertainer.

Yes, someday we will once again stir our inner desire to simply listen to and enjoy music for what it is meant to be – music.

Good luck Christiana, we hope you get your big break and are given the opportunity to express yourself to the world in the way you so clearly are prepared for.

Video - Justin Bieber Attacked and Knocked to the Ground in New York City

Poor Justin Bieber.

After a long 24 hours of press while promoting his new “Someday” fragrance, he ran into a little trouble on the streets of New York.

Bieber did the David Letterman show last night and read the Top Ten List, visited the Today Show staff this morning, and wrapped his morning with the gaggle gals on The View.

After his television appearances he headed over to Herald Square to meet his fans at Macys when things went terribly wrong.

Bieber had entered Macy’s to do a quick session with reporters and then headed back outside to greet his fans when a man jumped a metal barricade and secondary rope line and knocked Bieber to the ground.

Witnesses say Bieber was visibly shaken when his two body guards jump into the fry to isolate Justin from the rest of the crowd.

Other witnesses say that it took three bystanders to subdue the attacker until police arrived.

One girl said,

“The guy just jumped the line and started attacking Justin. He pushed him around and finally knocked him to the ground. Everybody was screaming and running around and all you could see was people everywhere.”

After the incident Bieber returned to the store and went upstairs to meet with fans that had a prearranged meet and greet with the pop singer.

One girl in the crowed was slightly injured but refused medical treatment.

There has been no official statement from Bieber’s camp or Macy’s.

That must be one mighty powerful perfume….
